Method Detail

createData

DBData createData(DBData parent,
                  Field field)

Create implementation for all non-array fields except enum.

Parameters:

parent - The parent interface.

field - The reflection interface for the field

Returns:

The DBData implementation

createEnumData

createArrayData

PVArray createArrayData(DBData parent,
                        Field field,
                        int capacity,
                        boolean capacityMutable)

Create an implementation for an array field.

Parameters:

field - The reflection interface for the field.

capacity - The default capacity for the field.

capacityMutable - Can the capacity be changed after initialization?

Returns:

The DBArray implementation.

createRecord

DBRecord createRecord(java.lang.String recordName,
                      DBDRecordType dbdRecordType)

Create a record instance.

Parameters:

recordName - The instance name.

dbdRecordType - The reflection interface for the record type.

Returns:

The interface for accessing the record instance.
